Turkey Patties with Potato

Just a couple of ingredients turn lean turkey nice and juicy! These turkey-and-potato patties are quick and easy to make. I came up with this recipe myself one day when I didn't have all the usual ingredients on hand and the weather was too nasty to run to the store.

Soak the crumb of the white bread in milk. While the bread softens up, chop the onion. I always add an egg to my patty mixture, but wouldn't you know it — this time there wasn't a single egg in the fridge. So to keep the mixture nice and juicy, you add plenty of onion instead. My grandmother taught me that trick; she lived in Central Asia for many years and knew how to make the most delicious, juicy manti. Peel one large potato and grate it on the coarse side of a grater. Add the soaked bread to the ground turkey, along with the finely chopped onion and grated potato. Mix everything together. Season with salt and whichever spices best suit poultry — pepper, thyme, or even curry. Shape small patties, dredge both sides in flour, and fry on both sides over medium heat. My family says the best sides for these are fluffy rice or braised vegetables. The result is delicious and not too heavy.
